Horizon view
Horizon from Clairaut C
48.1659° S, 13.3857° E · cell 25FCB
- Highest horizon point
- Clairaut: 14.8° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 118°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 123°, 14.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,630 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 38.3° high at azimuth 33°, 25.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:16:38 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 1.9 km, the global LOLA terrain tier of 16 pixels per degree; relief smaller than that, near or far, is smoothed, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.
